Ecosystem 2015 - March 26, 2015

Executive Vice President and Executive Director The eLearning Guild

In nature, an ecosystem refers to the combination of a community
of living things, the non-living elements that make up their environment, and
the many ways in which those individual elements interact. In order for an
ecosystem to thrive, the individual components must connect and support one
another, balancing each other so that the whole is greater than the sum of its
parts. Ecosystems exist in the workplace as well. Understanding the structure
and dependencies of an organizational ecosystem can help you build a better
learning and performance strategy.

In this session you will examine the expanded scope of a learning
and performance ecosystem, examining the numerous components that contribute to
learning and performance improvement. You will also explore how these
individual components can be combined into a single cohesive strategy in which
the whole is more than the sum of its parts.
